Even though I’ve never totally had a fetish for watching Gossip Girl as a life ritual, does not mean I haven’t noticed the amaze style going on with these Upper East siders… I mean what kind of American teenage girl would I be right?!…

Aside from the return of both mine and Blair’s archnemesis, Jenny Humphrey, tonight’s Gossip Girl will feature a top from the Porter Grey 2010 collection, as worn by Ms. Serena van der Woodsen.

If you guys haven’t heard yet, the producers of Gossip Girl are trying to save the show by incorporating a vampire story. Yes that’s right, one lonely character will become a blood sucker and there will be crossover between this show and Vampire Diaries. So basically, Jenny Humphrey will be sent off to boarding school where Edward Cullen will bite her and she’ll slowly turn (then turn others) to the point where humans will be extinct and Ethan Hawk will have to find a synthetic blood source but not before Evan Rachel Wood becomes queen of the vampires and Stephen Dorff makes a triumphant comeback! Where’s Blade when you need him?

Before I get into this post it would be a tragedy if I didn’t get this out of the way…Uggs? Really Blake Lively? GROSS!

How many c-list actors can they get on this show? Who the hell is Kevin Zerger and why is it a big deal that he is on Gossip Girl? They always announce these actors and new characters like they are going to be something big, they never are haha. I’m assuming that this is all a result of my jealousy because he is going to be playing Taylor Momsen’s love interest….damn it!

Not quite sure what Taylor Momsen was planning with this look at a Teen Vogue block party. She performed with Pretty Reckless, but I don’t think anyone really cared how she sounded, only about the fact that she wasn’t wearing pants. Chill dudes, she’s still 16…or is she 17 yet? Also, I kindof like this look?

May be sick of me talking about Taylor Momsen today, but we all love her here, and Teen Vogue is putting her all over the place (including in our RAW feed). Here’s her interview for the September mag, Corey was very excited to hear that she only dates older guys.
–
TEEN VOGUE: You seemed totally at home in front of that crowd the other night—is it true that, until recently, you’d never played a live show?
TAYLOR MOMSEN: The only other time I’ve been on a stage was when I starred as the Little Red Hen in the second grade. But my family used to play music and dance around in the basement every Saturday night. My sister and I even formed a band called Pink Boa—we’d put on tutus and masks, and I’d sing and play guitar and she’d play the drums. We knew two songs, “Seven Nation Army” and “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll.”
TV: And you’ve been acting professionally for over a decade—that probably helps.
TM: Yeah, I kind of grew up in front of the camera: I started modeling when I was two. I was never pushed into it, but I never really chose it either. That’s why music is so different for me—I’ve known since I was little that this is what I want to do.
TV: Does that mean you’re finished with acting after Gossip Girl?
TM: It would be crazy to cut it out completely. And I love being on the show—I hope it goes on for a couple more years. But as for the future, I don’t know. I’m at a point now where I’m not doing anything just for money or fame.
TV: You recorded most of your album before signing a deal with your label, Interscope, whereas many famous actresses work the other way around. Was it important to you to do as much as possible yourself?
TM: The most obvious thing is to look at me and say, “Oh, pretty blonde girl, let’s put her in pop.” But I would never want to do something in music that isn’t representing me—I’d feel like I was faking myself. I wanted to have it all done so I could say, “Here’s who I am, either you like it or you don’t.”
TV: Tell us about your song writing process.
TM: I start with an idea, an emotion, and I write whatever comes into my mind. My lyrics are my diary—you’re hearing every detail of my life. I’m still learning guitar, so I have a writing partner who helps me: I know what I want to do, but I can’t physically do it, so it’s good to have someone there who can interpret. I’d call my music rock, but with pop hooks. I grew up listening to the Beatles, Blondie, and Joan Jett, and I love Nirvana.
TV: You recently finished high school, more than two years early. Were you just eager to get it over with?
TM: I found it kind of boring. I’m an artist; I’m not going to use trigonometry. Now I’m taking college classes online—I want to major in Language Arts.
TV: Do you have any interest in doing the regular college thing? Enrolling at a university, living in a dorm…
TM: For most people, college is a place where you learn about yourself, and I feel like I’m doing that already. I’m already independent.
TV: People also make great friends there.
TM: I have such trust complexes. I’m close to like two people.
TV: Is that a side effect of fame?
TM: I’ve always been like that. People misinterpret what I say all the time: They think I’m being offensive, when really, I’m only being opinionated. Most of my friends are older, too. I live a very adult life: I have two different careers; I’m on tour. What am I going to do, hang out with the high school kids? I just can’t relate to what they talk about—it seems so petty.
TV: Are your parents comfortable with your maturity?
TM: They have to be; it’s not going anywhere. But I’m responsible. I’m not one of those crazy teens. They trust me.
TV: Do they trust you with older boyfriends?
TM: I’m not dating anyone right now, but I’ve had lots of relationships. My parents know that I’m not going to date someone who’s sixteen. Boys are so much less mature than girls as it is; there’s just no way— I would eat a boy my age alive.
TV: You were a finalist for the part of Hannah Montana—are you ever relieved that you didn’t get that role?
TM: I think it’s a great opportunity for Miley, but yeah, I guess I am relieved. If I had gotten the part, it would be a very different show. It wouldn’t have worked for me. I push back.
TV: It’s hard to imagine you being totally happy at Disney.
TM: When I was nine, it seemed amazing. But I wouldn’t have been able to deal with not writing my own songs. I don’t want to lose the artistry—a lot of people in music right now are faces—manufactured. I don’t want to be that.
TV: And you’ve adopted a very rock ‘n’ roll look.
TM: I had long, pretty hair, and it didn’t fit me. I’m pretty, but I’m not, like, a “pretty girl.” So I pulled up a bunch of photos of Joan Jett and said, “Do that to my hair.” There was a distinct change in my wardrobe, too, and I know people were a little, um, taken aback. But it wasn’t me that changed—it was just that I decided to start being myself. Now I do my own makeup, my own hair, and dress myself, and it feels better.
TV: So this isn’t just another part? You’re not acting when you’re up on that stage?
TM: No way. The role is me.
